Dr. Scoma offers his clients a range of treatment options and is well-practiced in multiple therapeutic modalities. Scientific research has identified certain approaches to treatment that are particularly beneficial for addressing a range of life stressors and associated psychological disorders. That being said, there is no single form of therapy that excels at addressing every issue for every patient. Dr. Scoma's diverse background allows him to collaborate openly with patients, discuss the pro's and con's of each approach and together, decide on a plan of treatment that dovetails well with the patients presenting issue, personality, and expectations for change. All treatment options offered through Dr. Scoma are "evidenced based" in that they have been repeatedly tested in the scientific community and consistently found to be to the most effective approaches to treatment currently available. Dr. Scoma's primary expertise is in cognitive behavior therapy, family/couples therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. He is skilled in providing treatment to children and adolescents as well as adults.

As part of the complimentary first session, following the initial assessment, Dr. Scoma will offer to you a range of treatment options to choose from. It is his intention that you leave that first session well-versed on your options for treatment so your decision to continue therapy is a considered one.
